Viking fleet expanding?

The launch of the Viking Travel Agent Academy comes at a key times in the line's history. A record-setting launch of ten Viking Longships in 2013 will be followed by an additional 14 Longships in 2014.

In addition to its European cruises on the Danube, Rhine, Seine and Douro, the line is expanding into the Burgundy region of France in 2014. It will also venture into Tibet as part of its China river cruise program and offer cruises in Myanmar (Burma) as well.

Viking Cruises' expansion is not limited to the world's rivers. In 2015 it will introduce its first ocean-going vessels. During its inaugural ocean cruise season, the 930-passenger Viking Star will offer itineraries on the Baltic and in Scandinavia, as well as the Western and Eastern Mediterranean. The design of the ship will invoke the Viking Longships. Its size will allow it to enter ports that more mainstream lines cannot access.

A second Viking Ocean Cruises vessel is scheduled for delivery in 2016. And Viking Cruises reportedly has taken out options for an additional four ocean vessels.

Plans also call for the line to expand into domestic river cruising. Viking Cruises president Tor Hagen has indicated that Viking Cruises will come to the Mississippi River at an unspecified time. In the summer of 2013, local media in Minnesota reported alleged details of a 340-passenger Viking ship to begin cruises in the fall of 2015.

Na careers sekciji njihovog sitea trenutno traže samo dvije management pozicije i ništa drugo, što me jako čudi jer piše da im ove godine stiže čak 14 novih brodova pa mi ništa nije jasno jer bi bilo logično za očekivati da regrutacija ide puno parom. A iduće godine još kreće i Viking Ocean Cruises s brodom kapaciteta 900 i nešto putnika. Trebali bi regrutirati stotine novh djelatnike ove godine i još toliko iduće a zapravo ništa ne traže. Očito nema druge nego poslati im CV na mail u nadi da će se uskoro pokrenuti. Kad su imali zadnji interview i što se tražilo?

Pa imali su intervju pocetkom proslog meseca u Beogradu i primili su gomilu ljudi.Samo za housekeeping im je trebalo 50 ili 60 ljudi.Ocigledno su puni za ovu sezonu,ali sansa postoji uvek kad pocne sezona zbog onih koji odustanu.

Sve te nize pozicije na sajtu su tek skoro zatvorene, prije mjesec dana otprilike... Tokom citave prosle godine su bile otvorene. A za prekookeanski brod jos uvijek nisu raspisali konkurs, ono na sajtu je u odjeljenju za rijecne brodove.

Znači onda je za ovu godinu prekasno što se Vikinga tiče, nema smisla pokušavati?

Pa prati na sajtu,pa kad otvore ti ponovo konkurisi.Sad imaju posadu,ali kad krene sezona ljudi ce odustajati,tako da uvek postoji mogucnost da se ubacis u toku sezone.

Sigurno ce imati jos otvorenih pozicija, cim krene sezona pocese ljudi odustajati, uvek je tako, neko odustane kanon dva dana, a neko odustane nakon dva meseca.
Za utility i cabin stward se najcesce odustaje / otvaraju pozicije.

Eto, prije tjedan-dva su se otvorile neke pozicije ali sad je već malo prekasno za mene. Aplicirao bih s ciljem da me prime za iduću sezonu, a nisam siguran ima li takav potez smisla.

Baš zbog toga ih i smatram trenutno najperspektivnijom kompanijom, neviđena ekspanzija. Inače, nisu dva nego će izbacivati po jedan brod godišnje.

Dobro, ali iduće godine ipak samo s jednim brodom startaju.
